Study Break Hard Seltzer

Beverages |
In 2019, Sean, a student at USC, identified a gap in the market for flavored malt beverages that were lower in sugar and had a better taste. After experimenting with drink formulations and gathering feedback from friends, he launched Study Break in March 2020, initially on draft in LA bars. Following the pandemic, he pivoted to canning the product and successfully expanded distribution to local stores. The brand aims to embody the spirit of Los Angeles, catering to a diverse audience. |

Aperitif |
We launched atost in 2020 in celebration of the flavors of our hometown, Ventura, CA, a region rich in agricultural abundance & cultural connection. Cindy's roots in California run especially deep, with her grandparents having migrated from Mexico generations ago to work the bountiful citrus fields. Their tireless efforts instilled in her a deep appreciation for the vibrant flavors and fragrances that spring from the land beneath us. It’s within these same fields, from the very orchards picked generations ago, that atost is made. A delicious California Aperitif bursting with fresh orange, juicy strawberry, & delicate rose. |
